    Balkan Veal Recipes

    Veal delicacies are a big part of Balkan cuisine.

    Croatia (particularly the island of Pag) and Bosnia and Herzegovina are known for their humanely-raised veal. 

    These are some of the best veal recipes on the site: Veal Shank Roast (Koljenica), Cutlets in Red Wine, Romano Bean Stew (Boranija), as well as the regular Veal Roast.

    Veal pâté is a smooth, spread that works well as an appetizer or a side. Rich meat flavor is sweetened by being simmered in onions, and additionally softened by blending with mayonnaise and sour cream. It's not a surprise this decadent spread is everyone's favorite breakfast. 

    Balkan Veal Pâté (Teleća Pašteta)

    Classic veal (under) shoulder roast with onion potatoes. What you get is succulent, falling-off-the-bone meat, as perfect pairing with potatoes that were first boiled then simmered over onion for a seamless soft+crunch combo.
